What is TEVETEN PLUS and what is it used for?

• TEVETEN PLUS contains two active substances called eprosartan and hydrochlorothiazide.

Eprosartan is included in the group of drugs called 'angiotensin II receptor antagonists'. It prevents the effect of a substance called angiotensin II in your body. This substance causes your blood vessels to narrow. This makes it difficult for the blood to flow through the veins and thus your blood pressure rises. By blocking this substance, your veins relax and your blood pressure drops.

Hydrochlorothiazide is included in the group of drugs called 'thiazide diuretics'. It allows you to urinate more often and more. This condition causes your blood pressure to drop.

• TEVETEN PLUS, cream-colored, '5147' written on one side, in capsule form

are tablets.

• TEVETEN PLUS is used in the treatment of high blood pressure.

• TEVETEN PLUS is given only if your blood pressure is not sufficiently lowered by treatment with eprosartan alone.
